C Shed Empty
..... a number of traders have been critical about the lack of a special market
in the top end of C Shed this Sunday. C Shed markets have generally added to
the vibrancy of this area over recent months and to see it empty was a major disappointment.
We can reveal that the special market intended for this weekend
pulled out around 2 weeks ago and left insufficient time for QVM event
organisers to find a replacement. The C Shed stalls were put back on the casual
allocation list for the day. The special market in A Shed on the same day had
been planned well in advance and was not shifted from C Shed.
The good news is that Sunday markets in C Shed are booked
out for the rest of the year and into 2016.
A Disaster .....
on one of the quietest trading weeks in recent months, what was the top selling
item on Greg Smith’s boat stall? You
guessed it.... “Titanic” replicas.
Overheard On One of
The Adelaide Buses................apparently one of the buses bringing
Adelaide Crows fans over for the AFL final yesterday discussed the QVM drop off
and suggested that fans should make sure they kept some spending money for the
subsequent return trips to Melbourne as their team progressed through the
finals. That might explain why thousands of Crows visitors seemed to have
little impact on business over the weekend.
